Hello! I’m Seth. I love playing and teaching others golf. I have 16 years of golfing experience starting with high school competitive play and lessons with several coaches. Anything golf related you want to know, I should have the answer. I focus on swing fundamentals, theory, and game management. For absolute beginners, the goal is to never miss the ball. For the more intermediate players, the goal is to develop a consistent repeatable shot pattern. For advanced players, the goal is to be able to shape the ball on command and control ball flight.
"Seth is amazing! I totally recommend him, I started with the basic stuff and it’s been a constant improvement. I already hit the course after a month or so of weekly classes and even though it was nerve racking at the beginning as the game progressed I was more confident with my game!

"Honestly, Ethan's lesson was quite good and I really liked that he likes very much. The lesson highlight really stood out, and I think with a bit more practice, I could improve even further. Though I’d probably benefit from some variety in drills, his calm approach kept me comfortable throughout. Still, I feel confident about keeping at it with Ethan's guidance.

"I’d say the lesson was quite helpful in refining my basic moves, though I still need to work on my footwork and reaction time. Angel’s focus on technique was great, and I appreciated the detailed feedback. I’m hoping future lessons will build on that foundation, but there’s clearly room to improve. Still, it’s definitely worth trying out if you’re into boxing and want honest instruction.
